Bolo de Manga is a traditional Brazilian cake that celebrates mango. Moist, fragrant, and gluten-free, this dessert is perfect for a sunny afternoon treat. In Brazilian cuisine, tropical fruits are often incorporated into pastries to add sweetness and freshness. Mango puree replaces some of the sugar and butter, resulting in a melt-in-your-mouth texture and a fruity flavor. This cake can be enjoyed plain or with a touch of shredded coconut or lime zest. But I would say it's perfect on its own; the first slice will lead to the second... Simple to make, it's ideal for those following a gluten-free diet but is sure to please everyone! Discover this easy and delicious recipe, which will bring a little sunshine to your afternoon snack.
Add the mango puree, vanilla extract, and coconut oil or melted butter, then mix well. I reserved a few slices of mango to incorporate into the cake.
Gradually incorporate the almond flour, rice flour, tapioca flour, baking powder (or baking soda) and salt. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
Pour the mixture into the mold and smooth the surface.
